Isn't putting in a different query string "including a different url that goes to the same place"?

Isn't this functionally the exact same?

presumably you control the urls you are sending in the email. As a result if you want to use query strings that's fine. The issue only arises when you use query strings to implement tracking on someone else's site instead.
